LASERS POOL SCHOOL LEVELS
Pool School 1
This introductory level involves building the swimmers’ confidence in order to be comfortable and move freely in the water. At this level, kids will learn basic skills such as bobbing, body position, entries, and kicking.
Not Available
This level further improves the skills learned in Pool School 1. In addition, floating, swimming underwater, underwater streamline, flutter and dolphin kick are introduced. More emphasis will be placed on learning how to breathe while performing these basic movements. The main goal through this progression is to take the swimmers from vertical to a horizontal plane on their front and back.
Pool School 2 Advanced
This level focuses on developing good swimming habits and techniques. Swimmers in this level will develop both confidence and independence in the water. Though flotation belts are available, swimmers will be encouraged to swim independently (under the supervision of their coach). This level's main purpose is to create technically sound swimmers and help to build endurance.
PS2ADV-A - Mondays/Wednesdays - 6:00pm - 6:45pm - PAC Pool
This level focuses on solidifying swimmers' freestyle and backstroke and with the correction of small details. In this level swimmers will also be introduced to the main components of breaststroke before attempting to perform the stroke as a whole. The main purpose of this level is to further develop previous swimming skills while simultaneously challenging swimmers with new skills.
PS3-A - Mondays/Wednesdays - 6:00pm - 6:45pm
PS3-B - Mondays/Wednesdays - 6:45pm - 7:30pm
Pool School 4
This level focuses on pushing swimmers to swim further distances while maintaining proper technique. In the level swimmers will master their freestyle and backstroke while also being introduced to breaststroke as a whole.
